About this property

Potter's Bungalow - Near Downtown Plaza, 3 bed

A 20% courtesy discount has been applied to the rent due to the new multi unit construction project underway at the property next door. Work hours 8 am - 6 pm, Monday - Saturday.

This 1936 Craftsmen inspired, vintage bungalow has been completely restored by an artist so that you can unwind in style. It has just the right combination of color and comfort. The exterior has been painted a warm, sunny yellow creating a very warm welcome. The splash of red in the kitchen adds to its rustic charm. Guests will enjoy how cozy this home feels. Less than 1000 square feet of creatively utilized space offering everything you need for a fabulous getaway. The family/dining room is open to the kitchen with breakfast bar. Enjoy hanging out watching a movie on the Smart T.V. with Cable, Play a game or dine at the cafe- style table. Three well-appointed bedrooms offer sleeping for up to 6 guests with a King, Queen and 2 new twin beds. The tile work in the bathroom and one-of-a-kind light fixtures are small works of art. The bathroom has a stall shower.

Take a 12 minute stroll or use the bikes and visit the Plaza in downtown Arcata or enjoy our famous Farmer's Market for fresh, local organic offerings, food and music.

We needed a place close to campus that had three rooms and/or two beds in the second room, and this checked all the boxes. Was nice and clean, and lower priced than similar properties in the area. Check-in was very easy, and the host provided clear instructions for everything. Will definitely look to rebook the next time we are in the area.

Great little house for my family to explore the Arcata area, A dishwasher would be nice but I fully realize that the kitchen would require lots of unneeded work to get one shoehorned in.

Great place to stay in Arcata

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Honestly this was the perfect place! Very clean and welcoming and all the beds were super comfortable. The wi fi didn’t really work even after resetting it but that was the only issue. There was also construction right next to the rental (so close they removed the rental’s fence while we stayed) and that was pretty noisy and annoying but not the fault of the rental company.

The space was clean and charmingly decorated. The pottery was lovely and all the little touches that were available were so appreciated. We didn't have a did but there was even a little basket with treats for your puppy and stuff to help you clean up after your dog. The kitchen had everything we needed. The needs were comfortable. It was great!

Very cozy just the perfect size for my family and dogs. Clean and had all the amenities we needed. Just wish the backyard was enclosed to let the dogs roam without a leash. Driveway is a bit difficult to back out of due to fence causing blind spot. Best to park on the street. We will most likely stay again in the future for sure!

Cute cottage with nice comfy spaces. Would have been excellent if the yard was fully enclosed, but the pup biscuits and towels to wipe feet were great. Also the shower was nice hot water and good pressure. Well appointed kitchen, we made a nice spaghetti dinner. Good location to check out the area.
